Okay, while it seems a full kit, analyze this and tell us what's wrong with the kit, and the auction.

I'm having fun on ebay today. LOL

It's just a generic universal kit w/ the exception of the manifold... you'll still need to do the dirty work. The turbo is a chinese knock off, it may work well or not

L4 is the same as inline four

Downpipe is missing.

Also oil lines, he mentions you need tuning

Turbo is "top mount"

Somebody might think the "showroom" is behind bars as the name of the city is "chino" but thats really a town.

\/ In addition to the manifold being SS instead of cast iron, it also says its 4-2-1 when its actually 4-1 if anything

It says the manifold is cast iron, but the picture shows otherwise (welded). Anyway, I looks like a good deal if the turbo is good.

All of it is Knock off crap.

No DP
Cheap low quality turbo
Universal pipes - you fab your own
Not worth the headache.


Why buy cheap shit and than have headaches one after another. You'll end up probably replacing every single part of that kit except for the piping.

Cheap out on turbo stuff and you better have a towing company on speed dial.

What's missing:

1 more U pipe would be needed because the charge pipe is on top of the unit.
2. fuel management.

That made no sense.
